Bug-bitten oolong? The secret behind Taiwan’s rare honey-flavored tea — and where to enjoy it
[url=https://sites.google.com/view/ethena/ethena-fi]Ethena[/url]
As the leaves rustle atop the hills in Nantou, Taiwan’s largest tea-producing area, the farm suddenly comes alive, millions of tiny green bugs hopping into the air.
While many farmers might frown at the sight of these pests munching on their crops, Lee Ming-cheng, a third-generation tea farmer and maker, can’t hide the broad smile on his sun-kissed face.
This “green insect fog,” as locals call it, is a sign they’ll have a good harvest of Gui Fei Oolong (also known as Honey Flavor Dong Ding Oolong or Concubine Oolong), a special tea that’s prized for offering a hint of honey flavor.
And it’s these endemic insects, called Jacobiasca formosana, or tea jassids, that are to thank for it.
When the jassids feed, the leaves go into defensive mode and produce a sweetened hormone that tastes and smells like honey, creating one of the world’s most intriguing teas: mixiang cha, or honey-fragrance tea.
The bug-bitten leaves are oxidized and roasted to create a variety of beverages. There’s mixiang black tea (made with fully oxidized leaves) and oolong teas like Oriental Beauty (partially oxidized and not roasted) and the previously mentioned Concubine Tea (partially oxidized and roasted), to name a few.
Unlike Taiwan’s ubiquitous bubble tea, mixiang tea is still highly limited and largely off-the-radar. But what was once a hidden gem among serious tea lovers is now starting to gain international attention.

Меня просто взрывает от того, как нагло и безнаказанно лгут так называемые «потерпевшие». Вы посмотрите на факты. Они отдали свои деньги непонятным посредникам, расписок нет, договоры либо липовые, либо не подписаны как надо, но зато все теперь в суде с криками «верните наши деньги». Бест Вей при чем? Это кооператив, который реально помогал людям. А этих «инвесторов» хлебом не корми – дай кого-нибудь обвинить. Особенно смешно слушать, как они кричат о моральном ущербе. Один не купил квартиру, другой «страдает» на миллиард рублей. Да это просто цирк. Бест Вей ни копейки у них не брал, но почему-то именно его пытаются подставить. А знаете, почему? Потому что этот кооператив реальный, с активами, которые можно арестовать. Настоящие жулики – это эти «потерпевшие», которые лгут ради легких денег. Суд должен показать, кто на самом деле виноват, и оставить Бест Вей в покое.
